- Building Collections: Folklore Krapp, JoAnn Vergona Folk Culture Fantasy Story Telling Folklore, the oldest form of storytelling, reflects the culture of a country, hence its nonfiction classification. Through these tales, one senses the values, the humor, and the lifestyles of its peoples. A powerful genre, folklore is the foundation on which high fantasy is created, epic films are produced, and a single story is passed from one generation to the next. True folktales have no known authors; their oral renditions are retold in written form, with variations from country to country. This article presents a list of 49 books from 11 regions of the world that illustrate this genre.
